The X-A160 EVO is the kind of power amplifier that makes you forget you're listening to electronics — it just moves air. Built around the same NJW0281G/NJW0302G transistors as Advance Paris's flagship MAA 1000, it brings genuinely high-current delivery to the 2×160W class, with a rear-panel Hi-Bias switch that eases the first watts into Class A warmth before stepping back when the music demands more headroom. The compartmentalized chassis keeps noise floors impressively low, and that 120 dB SNR manifests as a genuinely black background between notes. Dynamic peaks land with authority; midrange detail stays honest rather than hyped. An earnest, muscular amplifier from a French house that knows how to build around a serious transformer.

- Liner Notes
New diagrams, power transistors identical to the MAA 1000, new power supply, more power, more music, more modern presentation such is the X-A160EVO.
The X-A160EVO amplifier consists of an ultra-rigid, compartmentalized chassis, providing effective shielding, thus eliminating any risk of radiation between the various circuits of the device.
The use of "Audiophile" type components guarantees a reproduction of your favorite music with finesse and subtlety.
The high power supply associated with the "very high current" power transistors (NJW0281G – NJW0302G) of the MAA 1000, restores the most demanding dynamics.
The X-A160EVO delivers a power of 160 Watts per channel in class AB; a switch located at the back of the device allows the X-A160EVO to deliver the first Watts in class A. Beyond this power, switching to class AB takes place automatically when Hi-Bias is selected.
